Exciting Episode in COURTROOM.

NEW YORK, April 4-The Brooklyn Court of
Sessions. to-day, was the scene Of an exciting
episode. The burglar William Henry, alias
Cunningham, was brought up for senence for the
crime for which he was convicted last fall. of
attempted burglary at a private residence
Judge Moore told the prisoner he was tone of
those deperate thieves from the West ''No,
am not" replied the prisoner. .and it is an out
rage to put that upon me-" He handed up let
ter TO prove that he not the Cunningham
from the West. The Judge declined to accept
the explanation. whereupon the man made an
indecent remark. Henry started up to attack
the Court, and proceeded as far as the iron gate
when four court officers caught him. The melee
caused most of the jury to seize their hats and
leave tho box. The prisoner threatened to get
even with the judge and jury. Judge Moore
sentenced him to ten years in Sing Sing-five
years the charge of burglary, and five for re-
sisting arrests.

A EIREBRANp.
Editor o'Brien's Course in New York
Making Trouble for Tammany.

New YORK, June 6.-The refusal of Ed
itor William O'Brien to attend the demon
stration of the United Labor party held in
his honor, as the representative of the Irish
cause, ON Saturday night, caused much ex-
cited comment all over the city yesterday.
1t was the general opinion that Mr..
O'Brien's action has furnished considerable
political capital to the United Labor party,
as those to whom the Irish patriot has been
marked in his attentions while in this city
ana who have appeared to entertain the
tne county Democracy and OF Tammany
Hall. A hastily called conference of the
Iammany leaders was held yesterday, and
the --latest political episode" as the affair
was termed, was discussed in all its phases
Arrangements will probably be made in a
few days by the Tammany men to publicly
deny that they. participated in the plot to
keep Mr.. 0'Brien from taking part in the
demonstration of Saturday night. "Sum-
OF Henry George, yesterday, "Mr O'Brien's
absence is only another proof of the alliance
that exists between Archbishop Corrigan
and the leaders of Tammany Hail." But
many of the latter gentlemen declared that
Mr.. O'Brien had not even been spoken to by
any of their members on the subject of re-
naming away from the demonstration. 1t
Is intimated by several prominent Irishmen
that If the action of Mr.. o. Brien is approved
by his countrymen in Ireland the subscrip-
lions from America to the Parliamentary
fund will be materially decreased, as the
contributions from this direction comes
chiefly from the workingmen, and perhaps a
large share OF them from members of the
United Labor party.

The Labors Of the Afghan Frontier
Commission at an End.
A Steamer and 73o Passengers
Known to be Lost.
The Scotch Yacht Thistle Wins An
other Race.

LONDON, June At is again announced
that the labors Of the Afghan frontier COM
mission are virtually at an end. The. diver
sence of views between the English and
Russian commissioners Is so great that all
hope of adjusting them has been abandoned,
and both parties have decided to refer the
matter back to their respective governments.
1t would be altogether premature to attempt
to fix blame on either one side or the other.
and he would be bold man who, remember.
ing the blunders which English diplomats
have made In this Afghan frontier business,
would assert that Russia is solely at fault
The nature Of the dispute Is at present on
ly a matter of conjecture. There is, how
ever, .onething pretty safe to assume. Rus
Sia wishes TO obtain permanent possession of
Maruchak, but that is just what Sir West
Ridgeway was totally unable to concede.
Rightly or wrongly, the Indian government
attach the highest Importance to the contin-
ued possession of Maruchak by Afghanistan,
and IL Russia insists in that demand there Is
little chance OF q settlement The dispute
must then be left open, possibly to become
critical at some. future time, when 1t may
suit Russia to seek a casus belli. 1t Is salts
factory to learn that the greatest courtesy
has been shown to the English commission
ers, and that, contrary to the statements of
London paper some time ago, there has been
~ VAAH VI any hiuu III Vic piOCccu-
ings. AT the same time the diplomat who
cannot be courteous while wishing TO be
hostile, is not worth much to his govern
ment, and there is no doubt that at the pres
ent moment Russia Is, If not exactly hostile,
By. no means friendly to England. Russian
policy has been thwarted in Bulgaria and to
some extent through England's agency.
Moreover 1t Is not many months since
Lord Salisbury took occasion to utter a
threat Of not uncertain kind by declaring
the intention Of England to support Austria
IL need be, In a Russian war. What then Is
more natural than that Russia should retort
by giving England trouble on the Afghan
boundary? The breakup of the frontier
commission at St. Petersburg looks very
much like Russia's answer to Lord Salisbu-
rvs threat, and suggests the advice to En-
glish statesmen that, before going out of
their way to thwart Russian policy in Eu-
rope, they would do we'll to remember that
Russia has ample opportunities of paying
of old scores by upsstting England's plans
in Asia.
CALCUTTA, June Cit has been proved
beyond. doubt, by the picking up Of the
captains chest, that the steamer John Law
renee was lost in the recent cyclone of Cal
cutta. The steamer carried 730 passengers,
and 1t is believed the whole number were
lost. The largest part of the passengers
were natives who were going to Juggernaut
In the OrisSa, to celebrate the Juggernaut
festival. This has cast feeling of gloom
over the Hindoo community at Calcutta, and
all the best families are in mourning for rel
atiyes or friends who were among the pas

The Chicago Election.

CHICAGO, June 6.-Just one ward in Chi
cago declared today in favor of Doodle and
anarchy. Except in the sixth ward the vote
throughout the county will average 8 to /
against the twin evils. States Attorney
Grinnell came out of the contest with flying
colors, surprising his running mate, Clifford,
by several hundred votes. Grinnell and
Clifford are Democrats, and were pitted
against Democrats English and Kraus. Grin
nell and Clifford were put up by members of
the bar because the Democratic Central Com
mittee, which named English and Kraus, had
offered the nominations for sale. Grinnell
and Clifford were favored by the citizens or
ganization, while English and Kraus were
endorsed by the United Labor party, the
body which recently made a red flag cam
paign against Roche for mayor. Six circuit
Judges were to be elected, but three Republi-
can candidates, Horton, Williamson and
waterman, and one Democrat, Baker, being
ON all the tickets, the fight was purely be-
tween Grinnell and Clifford on one side, and
English and Kraus on the other. Exclusive
OF the suburbs, Grinnell and Clifford lead
heavily. The total vote was as follows:
Grlnnell, 23,so7; Clifford, 23,0C7; English,
1874; Kraus, 10,6S5. The Republican can
didates and Baker, Democrat, received each
about 81, CcJ votes. This is only one-third of
the registry The election, contrary to all
indications, was unusually quiet and orderly.

a MARROW ESCAPE.
The Allan Steamer Caspian Barely
Escapes Being Wrecked.

The Allan steamer Caspian, from Balti-
more for Liverpool, had very narrow es-
cape from being wrecked off Sambro Head,
as she was approaching Halifax Harbor in a
fog Saturday morning. Though in 43 faith
oms of water the captain found himself in
dangerous proximity to the breakers. He
turned his bow to sea, and a few minutes
later, while going slow, she struck heavily
on what he thinks was submerged wreck,
but everybody else believes was rock, and
that rock the Southwest Breaker, near where
the Daniel Steinman met her fate. The Cas-
plan struck again, second and third time,
but with less violence than at first. The
pumps were started, but no water was found.
One hour later, however, she was making
water rapidly, and by the time she reached
her dock in Halifax the whole forehold was
filed with water. Divers found her stem
bent and an ugly indentation in her bottom.
She will discharge part of her cargo and
make temporary repairs at Halifax The
mail for Newfoundland willdoubtless be for
warded on special steamer.
